i need to know if 17x7 in the front and 17x8 in the back 5 Zigen fn01's would be ok to put on a 90 240sx w/ just lowering springs. What offsets would be good and if i would have to roll the fenders. Also what size tires would be good. pls let me know. thanks! :-/

First off...SEARCH.

No...7" is WAY too skinny for a 240SX. Do 17X8 all around AT LEAST.

And why stagger? No reason to, unless you really need the extra tire out back.

so u think 17x8's +35 all around will fit fine on a s13 w/ just lowering springs? there wont be any problems like rubbing or whatever?

With a 225/45-17 tire...should be perfect.

If you have the 5 conversion. . . 17x7 & 8 : +45 rearend, +48 frontline on 235/40 on the rubber, those are in 17X 7.5 and 8, for the forged. If you want lip ( which I can assume you do) then the highest you can travel w/o coilover setup is +35 on the rear, +35 or +42 on the frontlines, these offsets come from the cast aluminum section of the FN01 series.

Good point. . . It should have been +35, all around, mean't to cut that first part. he has the option to run a lower offset with the five-lug conversion. was in a bit of a hurry when I wrote this out. . . .

get on 5 zigens website and have a look at their spec sheet for the fn's. if you are staying with the 4 lug i would get the 17x8 with 35mm offset all around. if you have $1800 to spend, then get gram lights 57pro with 4 lug. you can get the 57pro's in 17x8 and 17x9 at 35mm on both.
